Is it really so difficult for a company to buy one (1) ten year old mid-spec server to do SCM? It's all you'd need even for dozens of users.

It's all the claptrap around it that's the hard part. Bug tracking, wikis, authentication, permissions, ci/cd etc. etc.

Multiply $240 times the amount of coders and you'll see if setting up all that claptrap one time's worth it.

No. Why?
